Company Overview

Teledyne FLIR supplies the thermal and multispectral sensing that most uncrewed platforms depend on, plus its own line of unmanned ground vehicles and CBRN detection systems. It is a sensor supplier and a platform builder at the same time.

Why we source from them
  • Sensor payloads are frequently the pacing item on a drone or SAR case; sourcing them from the platform supplier removes an integration step.
  • Their EOD and CBRN ground robots address a requirement class that few drone vendors cover.
Capability Focus
  • Thermal and multispectral imaging payloads
  • Unmanned ground vehicles for EOD and reconnaissance
  • Chemical, biological, and radiological detection
  • Maritime and airborne surveillance sensing

Jurisdiction
Mixed ITAR / EAR
Typical categories
  • USML Cat. XII (military thermal)
  • ECCN 6A003 (commercial thermal)
  • USML Cat. VIII/XVIII as applicable
Transfer route
Per sensor part number

Imaging and sensing hardware falls under USML Category XII, one of the most tightly controlled categories. Resolution, frame rate, and spectral band determine jurisdiction, so we confirm the exact sensor part number before quoting an export. Resolution, frame rate and band determine jurisdiction.

Typical classifications drawn from public regulations and company sources for guidance only. Final jurisdiction is confirmed per configuration, end user and destination with the responsible US authorities. Listing does not imply a partnership or endorsement by Teledyne FLIR Defense.
